I know this really isn’t the point of the video but I love that photo of Gordon Ramsay! The way he’s lit, the green/blue colour, the slow shutter. Is there a video where you break this shoot down? 🤩
@@RIDEMusicYT we have a video about ramsay. It was one of our earlier ones. We do think we could remake these to be better but for now it's on the channel :)
First, Harry please sign the image behind you on the wall. You're an artist, artists sign their work.🙂 Second, Fuji rangefinder? Third, love the behind the scenes interviews. Keep working on it. Second camera?
Haha i definitely should get him to sign it! @harryborden about fuji rangefinder! And yea a second camera angle could be good. Then I could be more involved as well just make the video more dynamic.
@@fredandharryborden Fantastic! I stumbled upon your channel the other week and have been binging it. I don't really know anything about photography but your dad is a great storyteller and I love hearing his anecdotes and experiences. What an amazing career! Marco is a very interesting guy and I'd love to hear what it was like photographing him. His Oxford Union address is still one of the best things I've ever watched.
I used to believe the perseverance thing until an editor from American Vogue said we expect you to know or we wouldn’t even consider you but we wanna know if you’re gonna be fun to work with some kind of chemistry with the editors and that’s usually word-of-mouth So who you know is actually critical to the formula also
It may be cynical, and what you know may get you to who you know, but a lot of ins are by way of who you know, unfortunately. I know from experience (being on the outside, not the inside!). Too many knows in this paragraph 😄
@@fredandharryborden I always find it to be very interesting (and very unique) watch though I would like for Harry to go deeper into choices he made while doing some of those sessions. Like choices he made while picking a location, subject placement within composition and mood/emotion getting out of his subjects. Cheers!
I share this : ..about 35 years ago I went to italy to pop up at Vogue-Italx at theyr redactors, no apointments or contacts whatsoeve. Pure "audace". Being then timid and not self-confident (or rather : needing reassurance), I stopped in a bar not far - not knowing still witch block it then would be. I went through my photographes that (as always) I had in a loose and messy way.. A woman past behind with her coffee, saw some photos and asked what I was up to. I stuttered about my intention (my italian was quite hesitant too). She said to follow, knowing where it is since she now worked exactly at the head redactor's office room ...! 15 seconds in there, she had just announced she had brought someone in here with some interesting work and interest to collaborate - that the chief YELLED at her that this was not the way to go. End of the (true) story. (Tails have tails.)
This channel is super insightful and honest. You two are very entertaining and i'm happy to have found this channel! Keep it up!!!
I was curious what it was like working for Vogue and found Harry's answer interesting so thought I would share.
Jarvis Cocker next week!
that was super interesting, thanks for sharing!
Sparkling pearls of wisdom, as always. I do like that you release your videos on Mondays, because it's a little something to look forward to.
Thank you! Much appreciated as always.
And I'm so glad - sticking to Mondays keeps us accountable too 😁
I like Fred asking the questions. Fascinating video as always!
What happened with the Peugeot?
Cheers guys! Thanks for watching. Haha Harry flipped that Peugeot on Christmas day, we ended up upside down😬
Another super video with great photos and stories. So glad I found your channel
Absolutely brilliant and fascinating video. Thank you.
Thank you!

Glad you like the shot! It's a really early one. Lit with a single red head! 😊
I hope you know how valuable your videos are for photographers like me who are starting out. 😊
Thats great to hear! Thanks for the kind comment 😊

Thanks for sharing. Its interesting hearing about the life and not techniques. Also shows it's often who you know, not how good you are :(
I also thought this and asked Harry about this idea at the end of the video. He actually disagrees however!
Any chance of a full video about photographing Marco Pierre White?
Of course. They are some wicked pics too, defo worth a feature.
Thanks for the comment.

Haha lots of knows for sure. But I agree it's a combination of both and maybe one isn't enough.
thanks for that - get Fred on camera!
@@sadshoe haha it does need to happen!
Thank you👌
Thanks for watch Sandro!! 😁

Brilliant suggestions. Next interview I will make sure to explore these!

Sorry to hear it didn't end maybe how you would have liked but still must of been quite an experience!
Thanks for the comment 😊
